The A-Z of Me

Hello fashionistas!
Sorry for the lack of posts lately. Thursday I was busy, and on Friday I went home with my best friend Melissa. Then I spent Friday and Saturday night at her place. We painted her room (once she finishes decorating and such I'll be doing a room makeover post, can't wait to show you guys). Then after I left her place on Sunday, I went straight to Panera to meet up with Ethan. We studied, laughed, and had some adventures. All in all it has been a good, busy weekend. To jump back into blogging, I decided the best thing I could do was a little tag.


I wasn't tagged by anyone to do this, I just wanted to do it!
So here we go, A-Z of me!
1. A – Available/Single? I'm single. 
2. B – Best friend? 
Lily, Melissa, and Ethan. LOVE YOU GUYS!
3. C – Cake or Pie? 
Cake. I'm a choco-holic. 
4. D – Drink of choice? 
Coffee. I also love English Breakfast tea.
5. E – Essential item you use every day? Glasses (or contacts). I'm blind without them!
6. F – Favorite color? 
I like the color black (slimming, you know?), blue (brings out my eyes and compliments my skin), and purple!
7. G – Gummy Bears Or Worms? 
Gummy bears!
8. H – High heels or flats?
I like high heels, I need the extra inches to lengthen short frame! 
9. I – Indulgence? 
Shopping, reading, blogging, makeup. 
10. J – Juggling many things at once or doing one task at time?
I like to multitask. I seem to always be doing 3 things at once!  
11. K – kayaking?
I like kayaking a lot! I just went last weekend with my dad. 
12. L – Life is incomplete without? 
Dreams. 
13. M – Marriage? 
No boyfriend, no hubby, so no marriage .  
14. N – Number of siblings? 
One. 
15. O – Oranges or Apples? 
Apples
16. P – Phobias/Fears? 
I hate reptiles, rodents, and I'm sort of a germ freak. Only not with the best friends, I'll drink/eat after them, but not other people. I also hate other people's hair being on things. GROSS. 
17. Q – Quote for today? 
"Don't be a follower, be a trendsetter!" I made this up (: 
18. R – Reason to smile? Happiness. 
19. S – Style? I've been told it's 'preppy', but I hate that word. I guess I just wear what makes me feel good, sometimes I'm influenced by trends, but I don't try to following anyone else. 
20. T – Toe nail color?
Right now I have on "Jade is the New Black" by OPI, but it's coming off tonight. 
21. U – Unknown fact about me?
Well for my followers it's unknown, I make a lot of weird noises. Like stupid noises, that always send my friends and I into fits of giggles. I also follow these weird noises up with stupid faces and movements... I'm so strange! 
22. V – Vegetable you don’t like? 
Radishes. 
23. W – Worst habit? 
I bite my nails and I also always have something moving, be it my foot, head, or tapping my fingers. I feel like that may annoy people...  
24. X – X-rays you’ve had? 
Teeth, ankle, arm, sinus areas. 
25. Y – Your favorite food?
 I love homemade, garlic, red skin mashed potatoes. 
26. Z – Zodiac sign?
Sagittarius. 




I tag all of you to do it!
I'm going to be scheduling some posts to go up throughout the week. This week and next week are going to be B U S Y. Final exam studying, and then the actual exams. 

I hope you're all doing great!

Ins and Outs #2

Hello, hello fashionistas!

I haven't done an ins and outs post in almost a month! 

INS


  1. I'm in love with this song that my best friend Ethan wants to sing with me. The duet cover he sent me doesn't load quickly, so I've been jamming to the original. I can't believe that it's a guy who sings it (it sounds like a girl). Waiting Outside the Lines - Greyson Chance! He's quickly becoming a favorite singer of mine!
  2. Not waiting on someone else, if I want something I'm going to go after it. I refuse to "wait outside the lines."  I'm definitely a go-getter. 
  3. I'm loving a pale gold eyeshadow in the inner corner of my eye, it really makes me look awake! If you look at my last post you'll understand what I'm talking about.


   4.I love braiding my bangs over. It's simple and it makes for a polished look. Very Lauren Conrad-esque.



OUTS

  1. I am so tired of stressing! Although I feel like with finals coming up this will be happening anyways.
  2. Wearing closed toed shoes. Once the heat starts I don't like to wear closed toed shoes very often! 
  3. Dissection. We're dissecting frogs in biology and it is g r o s s. I have a really bad gag reflex so the entire class is one big gag fest!
  4. Not sleeping. I've been having a hard time falling asleep lately, after I post this I am going to bed! 


Hope you guys like! What are your current ins and outs?
Let me know in the comments below!

The Bold and the Bronzed- Makeup of the Day

Hello fashionistas!
Believe it or not, when I started this blog I planned on it being a makeup blog, it quickly became a fashion blog.
I happened to take a bunch of pictures after I did my makeup Saturday night, so I thought why not do a face of the (other) day! Sorry the picture quality isn't great, I don't have a great camera. I actually just used my Iphone for these. I liked this look so much that I did it again today! 

Hope you like!

Today I took my big biology exam... It was pretty hard! I have 2/3 of my life back (I still have one more part to do). Sadly next week I have a biology test, so this weekend I'll be studying (weekend.... only 4 days away). Friday I have a geometry test that I have to do well on... I have a lot of studying to do for that! 

Enough of my ramblings!

I hope you guys have a great week, I'll post soon!

Blooming Flowers and Smiles

Hello fashionistas!
Here's a little outfit of the day for you all!

Top: Liz Clairborne Tanktop: Costco Skirt: Coldwater Creek Necklace: mom's Shoes: Aerosoles 

I wore this last week! Again this was one of those outfits I threw on right before I walked out the door.
This shirt and the necklace are my mom's, yes, I borrowed some stuff from her closet.... again!

Sorry these aren't the best pictures, my mom took them after school before we went to my sister's school for a drama performance. The lighting is just off. I really love all of my  mom's flowers in the background, they look great!

I hope you all have a fabulous weekend! I plan on doing some studying for my 2nd biology exam on Monday, and hopefully hanging with Lily this weekend.

Where Do I Begin?! Update and OOTD

Hello fashionistas,
whoooo, what a week it has been (and it's only Wednesday)!
Let me give a run down of my week so far! 

Sunday: I went to a Bon Jovi concert with my mom and aunt that night. You all know my love for him! It was so great, he's amazing! We didn't get home until 1 am, and due to the fact that I was all jazzed up I didn't fall asleep until 2:30 am. Oh, Monday morning was r o u g h.


Blazer: Kohls Shirt: New York and Company Tank top: Aeropostale Jeans: GV Shoes: Aerosoles Clutch: Susan Faber Earrings: Mom's
Sorry for the fact that I'm talking! This was the only picture I have of my outfit.

Excuse the fat face pictures, bad angles. Also, excuse the triangle of paleness between my brows, I got a lot of sun (a little burnt) and had sunglasses on. So now I have that stupid pale spot!

Monday: I dragged my sleepy bootaaayyy out of bed and into the shower (I normally shower at night though). I was so tired! After making it through the school day I went home with my friend to do a trial run on her hair and makeup for prom. Then, we went and got our nails done (well she got her nails done and I got a pedicure).
Then I got home and did my geometry homework and studied for my French test.

Tuesday: I went to school and took my surprisingly easy French test. I'm glad it was easy because I made note cards, but I only studied for a half hour! Then I went to my best friend Lily's house and chilled for a couple of hours. After 'chilling', I went to her spring guitar concert (which was great) !
I didn't get home until 9:30, then I made my other best friend Melissa brownies because today is her birthday.
Before going to bed I looked over some biology stuff because Wednesday was the first pre-AICE biology exam.

Wednesday: I went in early to give Mel her brownies and card and have a little celebration.HAPPY BIRTHDAY MELLY!  Then came death (aka the exam). Biggest shocker of the day, the exam wasn't that hard! There were only a couple of things I was really stumped on. This one was apparently the easiest out of the 3 we have to do. Monday is the hardest (so scared). After the test I went to my normal classes and did work. I also finished my teapot project in pottery today! Once I got home it was more homework and studying. I also helped mom do some cleaning.



Now you're all caught up in my life! Sorry for ignoring the blog lately! My life has just been go, go, go nonstop! Tomorrow I have a geography test to study for so, I probably won't post anything. 

I hope you're all having a great week!

Love you guys!

I Can't Come Up With a Catchy Title.

Hey fashionistas,
I wanted to share an outfit with you that I wore a longggggg time ago.
This was just a very chill school outfit. 

Shirt, shoes,  turquoise ring,hair clip: Forever 21 Jeans: GV Rings: gift from my mom   Tanktop: Costco 

I wore this weeks ago. It's been sitting in my "Outfit of the Day" folder on my computer waiting to go up! 
I am so sorry for being so slow!
 I remember wanting to throw a little pattern in so that's where the cheetah shoes come in! I like these shoes a lot, but they're half a size too big! So I stuff little balls of paper towel in the front so they fit! My friends always ask if I stuffed them every time I wear them, and I'm like "duh!"

Have a fabulous day!

Best Friends Outfit of the Day

Hello fashionistas,
I would like you to meet my best friend Lily.
I've featured her in some other posts but, I want to tell you more about our friendship.
We've been best friends for SIX years! I don't know how I would survive without this girl.
We have these moments that we call "mind macks" which are when one of us says/texts the same thing the other was about to say (or was saying). We can complete each other's thoughts and follow along on each other's long stories! Love you girl! Best friends FOR LIFE. 

This is exactly how we act! One of us is always laughing!
Top & tank top: Kohls Skirt: Coldwater Creek Shoes: Aerosoles Earrings: New York and Company 
I know Lily's dress is from Forever 21, that's about all I know.
I also did Lily's makeup! Sorry I didn't get an upclose of either of our faces.

What do you guys think of the my topknot? I really like them, I want to wear my hair like this to school soon.

Is it not ridiculous how much taller Lily is than me? Grr, curse her and her never ending legs! I wish I didn't have such stumpy little legs! 

I wore this to see my other best friend in a musical last Saturday. Mel, you did great!

Hello fashionistas,
I wanted to show you what I wore last Tuesday. 


Top: American Eagle (Marshalls) Blazer: JcPenny Shorts: Gloria Vanderbilt Tanktop&backpack: Aeropostale Necklaces: Forever 21 Shoes: Payless Headband: Claire's 


I was feeling very 'summery' so I decided to wear these shorts! I also dug this tanktop out of the back of closet, I hadn't worn it in eons! Sorry for my backpack and lunchbox being in the back, we were in a rush!

I have so much homework tonight! Biology, geometry, and geography. I also have to study for a geography test that I have to make up on Thursday. Busy, busy, busy!
I'm off to go do my homework!

Hope you liked!

Sunday's Style

Hey fashionistas,
I just wanted to show you all what I wore to Panera last Sunday.
Two of my best friends (Ethan & Lily) went to to do some studying and eating.
We accomplished both! 

Dress: Kohls Belt, and canvas tote: Forever 21 Shoes: Payless Earrings: New York and Company
Sunglasses: unknown Purse: Gift (brand is Kathy Van Zeeland) Watch: Avenue

Ethan (my bestie) was like "you look like one of those women with tons of bags out shopping." So, I got him to take a picture of me in motion! Thanks Ethy! 

This would be the BFF and I working on some school stuff. Sorry for my strange face! Lily (the other BFF) was just taking pictures (these happen to be the usable ones).

Candid shot of me texting.
Yes, it is very blurry! I had to show you all this because this just happens to be one of the faces that I make all of the time. I'm queen of strange facial expressions (and noises). Just a little Savannah factoid for you all!


Thanks to all of my new followers, I can't believe I'm only 7 away from 200! Crazayyyyy!

I also wanted to say HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! I love my mom so much, I hope you're all doing something special to honor you moms! ♥

Hope you all had a great weekend, I'll blog some this week!



Lots of love!

Chambray Love

Hellllloooo fashionistas,
HAPPY FRIDAY!
I'm so happy that this week is o-v-e-r!
It's been a long and stressful week.
As I told you all earlier I have 3 exams for my biology class (the first being on the 18th) and I've been working on the study guide like mad! I'm going to type up 8 pages tonight. I'm not looking forward to that at all! 
Plus I still have more to do! *I just can't handle this*
Yes, that would be my 'crazy' Friday night plans! 

Tomorrow, I'm going to my cousin's house to do her makeup for prom! I'll make sure to take pictures for you guys! After, we're meeting my Nana to go out to dinner, then we're spending the night at her house to celebrate Mother's Day.

Anyways, enough of my babbling! Here's what I wore on Wednesday. 
Sorry for the horrible wrinkles! Every time I sit in this dress it wrinkles, but I still love it!
Dress: Fashion to Figure Chambray shirt: from my Nana, it used to be my grandfather's Shoes: Aerosoles Earrings: gift from my mom Headband: unknown Bracelet: vintage from my Nana

Hope you all like! I'm loving chambray this season, I can't wait to wear this shirt over some other dresses!
I have a couple of ideas in mind... You'll just have to wait and see!


On a random side note, I'm not going to do an April favorites post this month. I didn't really use many new products last month. I have been using a lot of new products this month, so I will definitely do a May favorites post when this month is over!

Floral Love

Hello fashionistas,
I wore this to school on Friday. I had to leave early for a biology test review, so this outfit was chosen the night before. 
Cardigan & tank top: Kohls (cardigan is LC for Kohls) Pencil skirt: Coldwater Creek Watch: Avenue Earrings: mom Shoes: American Eagle for Payless


I love this cardigan so much! It's so perfect for Florida weather. I've worn it out on the weekend twice now. I'm so glad my mom bought it for me. I bought these shoes months ago, I had tried to wear them twice but, they were painfully uncomfortable! They weren't stretched enough in front and my pinky toes would get squeezed to death. I wanted a pop of color with this, so I toughed it out! I think I finally stretched them out enough, fingers crossed! 


Hope you're all doing well! Lot's of love(:
Thanks for following and commenting, I can't believe I'm only 10 followers away from 200! So exciting!

PS: I have the Melon pigment I bought from MAC on my eyes. If you want to see an upclose of my eye makeup, let me know! I'll take some pictures and do a post!

Ruffles and Curls



 Hello fashionistas!
I wore this to school on Thursday.


Dress: from my Mom (I think she bought it at Ross?) Tank top: Forever 21 Blazer: Jcpenny Shoes: Aerosoles Bracelet: vintage, from my Nana 


I threw this on at 8:53, we leave a little bit after 8:55! I was rushing around the house trying to find something to wear! I finally 'borrowed' this dress from my mom's closet (it might be making a permanent move to mine....) These pictures are not the best (from the angle taken, they make my face look really chubby). Sorry!


Today I'm headed to Panera with two of my best friends (Lily and Ethan). We're going to do some studying.
Panera is this awesome bread company and they have great soups, sandwiches, and pastries (among other things)! Ethan and I spent our entire mid-term study sessions there (a straight two days)! 
I always have the best time with them whenever we go (at least twice a month)!
Yes, Ethan is said guy friend who I was in a big fight with. We're all good now. Just in case you were wondering! 

Have a great Sunday, I'm dreading school next week! I just want summer to be here!

PS: I wanted to share a cute picture of Colby I shot.
He's a pain but, oh so cute!
